Opera “Carousel”
Opera "Carousel" pen/ink drawing, 18”X26”.
"Seldom Bucket had always enjoyed opera. He didn’t understand it and never had, but he didn’t understand the ocean either and he enjoyed that, too".
Maskerade" Terry Prattchett ...
I love Opera. I love this genre, combining almost every other of fine arts. This compound is not just a mathematical sum of it's components - music, drama, visual art, dance... Their symbiosis gives birth to something absolutely different, to the visual feast. This artwork belongs to my Carousel series.

We live in myths. Our peace of mind demands that all the facts and elements of the "real world" (as we call it) be somehow explained. We build myths, myths in which everything that surrounds us has its place and meaning. The myths of the northern peoples are not fairy tales, they are their reality in its most understandable and meaningful form. The northerners, surviving in the extreme conditions of the "edge of the world", have formed a culture (and culture is actually a sum of myths) so perfect and picturesque, and in some respects so different from the European (Western) tradition, that it deeply fascinates and inspires me as an artist.
